Shepton Mallet Chamber Ian Jarmaine Ian was elected Vice Chairman of the Shepton Mallet in 2007 although he had been fulfilling the role for some months before that. Ian took over the role as Chairman at the beginning of March 2008.
He runs the The Swan public house in Town Street and is very involved with both the Shepton Mallet Business Against Crime group and Pub Watch. His association with the town started in the late 1950s as a child. He saw the town change significantly in the early 70s at the north end of the town following demolition of part of Town Street and Market Place, pedestrianisation of those areas and the building of The Amulet etc. He says of the town, "With the various initiatives now available I firmly believe that the town can become a vibrant town again provided we all work together." |
